OK, so I'm willing to be the token newbie because this is driving me nuts. I want to replace the homescreen text msg icon with GO SMS PRO like I did on my Epic 4g. Anyone spare me a sarcasm laden solution?
Thanks!

Go to app drawer, menu, change to customizable grid, edit, drag your new icon in.

Do u mean on the dock? It took me a while to figure it out too. Go your app drawer, make sure it's set on grid..and then drag the app you want to be in your dock down to where you want it
Go to apps
Press menu, Select grid
press menu, select edit (or customize, can't recall which command is displayed)
Swipe right/left between screens to locate desired icon
Long press desired icon and drag ic on to home screen icon area

Using Adw launcher, when you push the menu button, where is the notification tab? There is an edit tab now. I downloaded the one from the market, but I could've swore the notification tab was there before. Is it maybe a newer version, or am I just missing something?

I believe it is gone. My ADW no longer has it.
Hmmm, I guess ill try to find an older version? I know you can swipe down on the top of the screen, but its easier to just push the tab. Thanks for confirming.

I would do a Google search to see if there are any old articles with a download link.

There are several other functions you could do like set the home button to go to home page and if on home page drop down notification screen or to just drop down notification screen. You can also use the swype up or down function to access the notificaion screen. I have my home button set to drop it down but nine out of ten times i just drag the notification down and because i gott get my finger up there anyway lol I know its a stretch.
i personally cannot find the option to add more home screens in ADW launcher version 1.1.3 . Don't know why it's gone. The option used to be there. Does anyone else know why i can't change it from 5 screens to whatever i want any more?
Hit menu, then the edit button, then click on one of the green plus signs. That's what I did, and I have 7 screens now.

thanks, just got confused because i remember the option being elsewhere, but not i see the light.
Anybody ever have problems with the menu bar on the home screen? My phone will not let me open the menu which would allow me to see all the apps on my phone. My daughter somehow managed to put one of her game apps icon where the menu button goes on the home screen. I'm running android 2.2 using cyanoginger 1.1, I've never had any problems except this one. Anyone have any solutions or suggestions? I made a youtube video but I can't post the link here just yet, the site says I need more post replys. If you go to youtube and type in "troubleshooting mytouch 3g slide" it should pop out. Thanks a bunch fir any help!

I'm asuming you talking about the button that opens the app drawer. All u need to do is touch and hold an empty space on ur homescreen, launcher actions, then open drawer, then drag that icon to the place where the game icon is. Hopefully that was clear enough

I did what u said but after I touch an empty space on my homescreen no where does it say "launcher actions." It just says widget, wallpapers, shortcut, and folders. Am I suppose to choose one of these options?

its press and hold open space, short cut, launcher activities, open app draw, when it creates it on the desktop drag it onto where the game button is
This happened to me right after I rooted and scared the crap out of me... But a google search lead me to the answer
Sent from my T-Mobile myTouch 3G Slide using XDA App
For some odd reason I don't have the option "launcher activities" after I choose shortcut. Did I forget to install something after I flashed the ROM?
Edit: Never mind guys I found it. It was under the "custom shortcut" deal. I feel like such a nooob!! Thanks for all the help, appreciate it!
I sound crazy asking this but is there a way anyone could take the bottom quick action buttons off to where thre isn't anything there. No phone, messaging, internet, gmail icons. I bought this quick wave launcher from the market and it pretty much makes the bottom icons useless. Or is there a launcher that takes as many of them away.

ADW Launcher (maybe it's only an ADW.EX feature, but I really doubt it). There's an option somewhere in it that lets you cut it down to zero spaces and expand the desktop.
I use it I love it
Alternatively, you can set adw to hide the dock with a gesture, in case you want to keep the buttons but dont want to look at them

Thanks guys, I'm obviously a fan of webOS from palm. I'm going to give these a try. Id be happy with just the only thing showing is the app drawer icon.

ADW can do it.
Here's what I do:
I enable the hidden dock bar and have swipe-up bring it up. Then I disable the main dock so I have more desk space. Then I tie the home button to my app drawer. It works really well.
Does anyone know if there's a way to change the dock icons on TW4? I could've swore that I saw it in one of the review videos but can't figure it out. Thanks in advance.

1) Click on the app drawer
2) Press the menu capacitive button
3) Press edit
4) Find the icon you want in your dock, press and hold as you drag it over the icon you wish to replace (in the dock).
5) Press the back capacitive button
You cannot change the app drawer icon but you can change the other 3.
Also to when you do that it will change your app sorting. To go back to alphabetically sorted hit menu in the app list and hit "view type"

Just starting using my New Epic 4G Touch .... Thank You !!! Now I can put the Handcent icon there ...
I know, I know everyone has been saying that they are getting blurry mms's that's not what my question is about.
As per the suggestions I installed the cm messaging:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=20738522&postcount=4027
After installing the app, the messaging icon appears on the home page and not in the bottom in the Dock with the "Phone", "Contacts", and "Application". Just wondering how to get it down there?
Also whenever I get a new text message and/or e-mail my lock screen doesn't turn on, and there is no Event Notification to unlock the screen and go immediately to either the text messaging app or the e-mail.
If someone could let me know how to fix these concerns or direct me to where I would be able to find the answers, I'd greatly appreciate it.
Go to drawer and hit the menu button, there should be like a edit function
